ok this top rollout continues to be loaded with surprises for me, did not expect to see a gun club song either
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 17:46 (thirteen years ago)
Sexbeat - yeah!
― stirmonster, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 17:46 (thirteen years ago)
The only Gun Club song I kind of like is Texas Serenade.
― _Rudipherous_, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 17:49 (thirteen years ago)
But Sex Beat is okay.
I never expected Into The Crypt Of Rays to be this high.

spacemen 3 important in the late 80s when a bunch of bands I loved either started sucking or broke up (swans, butthole surfers, sonic youth, scratch acid, big black), S3 + skullflower + getting my hands on psychedelics well you know how it goes in college

looking at the list of nominated tracks at this point would ruin my enjoyment. this list keeps suprising me and I like it that way
― gospodin simmel, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 17:51 (thirteen years ago)
I just looked at it again and can only think of about 4 things that are left that could have got enough votes, plus whatever's left for SY and Husker Du.

Totally should be top 10 but 15 is a good effort. Fking love it

yeah that doesn't seem really 'lol ilm' to me, pretty huge well known classic. 'rockist' charge is hilarious and wrong but i have to admit some moroder jordache aor flashdance disco on this list would be awesome.

Oh I love it, I just dont think you would find it top 15 in many polls.

'rockist' charge is hilarious and wrong
One of my questions was whether the parameters of the poll were informed by sociological rather than musical factors, so you can see the relation to the rockism debate there.
― timellison, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 18:34 (thirteen years ago)
yeah "Institutionalized" is not 'very ilm' in any particular way
― Algeddie Trunkeeper (some dude), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 18:34 (thirteen years ago)
this seems insane to me; anything talking about American hardcore is going to reference "Institutionalized" as one of the songs that put the genre on mainstream radar
― cake-like Lady Gaga (DJP), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 18:35 (thirteen years ago)
in fact i'm not sure i've ever even seen any mention of Suicidal Tendencies on here, although i'm sure they exist
